Manual Transmission Service & Repair Waterloo, Ontario

A manual transmission has a clutch, which is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the transmission, allowing the driver to switch gears and control your driving experience. Compared to an automatic transmission, the manual transmission is mostly made up of mechanical gears that rely on the drive to shift.

Manual transmission service is essential for keeping your manual transmission in optimal condition. Transmission fluid naturally degrades over time, which is why replacing your transmission fluid is important to keep your gears shifting smoothly. How often you need to change your transmission fluid depends on the year, make and model of your vehicle, give your local Mister Transmission a call to find out when you

Lisa Hicknell
Another shop quoted us well over $2000 to replace the drive shaft on our Volvo. The great folks at Mister Transmission were able to find us a salvage one and ultimately saved us over $1000 in repairs. We really appreciated the efforts they put into finding the best fix for our vehicle and definitely recommend them!

I had expected to buy a new/used transmission or pay for replacing the clutches. But, they were honest and found that it was a wiring issue. Easily fixed AND far cheaper than expected.
